Antique Legends Bakhtiyari Karastan Area Rug

This luxurious carpet is inspired by 19th century Bakhtiyari village weaving. Its intricate pattern features small rectangular compartments covering the center of the rug, each filled with the stylized floral motifs. Modern artisans utilize multiple shades of a color to painstakingly recreate the striated effect often found in aged vegetable dyes. The piece is then given a special antique wash to harmonize the colors with a rich "vintage" patina. From the Antique Legends collection by Karastan, maker of the finest Oriental style rugs since 1928.
